The staff was very family friendly; they allowed us to take our food to our room, had a high chair set up for breakfast, etc. These things are so appreciated when traveling with a toddler! The included breakfast is also very good. There is no elevator to the rooms but it is only one short flight of stairs. We will stay here again when we are in the area.

I've been told the Sunday Lunch is good too; we'll have to try it! I find the Staff really excellent and the little Lady Chef is top notch! I find this place an asset to Porthcawl and if you are visiting I can inform you it is the best place to eat lunchtimes!

The Pier hotel accomodation is basic but fine. It is clean and tidy, but there is no luxury or…read morefuss. For the money this is more than acceptable. Food is served in the cafe which is situated in the hotel - although this is run separately from the hotel. As the Pier hotel sits on such a good site on Pothcawls promenade it is a shame that it is only a very basic hotel, and that it doesnt aspire to be something nicer or fancier - it does however fulfill it's remit of being a clean, basic and cheap hotel - which offers satisfactory accommodation for the price. The Pier bar is popular in the evenings - and has a late licence, so could present some noise problems for the guests on weekends.

The window near the bed was draughty, so we moved the bed and some mould on the carpet near the bath but all was clean. The shower was difficult to work. However, the redeeming qualities were the pleasant staff and newly refurbished bar and restaurant. The bar meals are ok not a great choice for vegetarians and the breakfast is acceptable. As it was a Groupon deal, it was well worth it but i am not sure i'd want to payfull price. It was very noisey despite being situated furthest away from the nightclub.

I stayed there 25 years ago and had a room over loking the sea which was absolutel wonderful. I returned there last year and was given a room at the back which overlooked a brick wall - this was very dissappointing. The room was very cramped and the bathroom was practically on top of the bed! A plus here was that it was very clean. The breakfast was good with a very good selection, good quality and piping hot. It was such a shame there was no view from the room.
